CHEM P3

The purpose of CHEM P3 is to guide you to the correct beginning chemistry course at ¾«Æ·SMÔÚÏßӰƬ. Several assessments are available in order to determine the course that is suited for you based on your background in chemistry and math. Your performance on the assessments, along with a conversation with your academic advisor, will help you to select a chemistry course in which you should be successful.

For most students, this program will help you decide between General Chemistry 1 (CHEM 1113/1114) and Introductory Chemistry (CHEM 1021).

For declared Chemistry and Biochemistry majors, this program will help you decide between Foundations of Chemistry 1 (CHEM 1400/1401) and Introductory Chemistry (CHEM 1021)
